BTW, Tennessee has had 3.99999 Presidents.
Nashville is the hottest city in America right now. Everyone wants to come to Nashville. We wish folks from CA, IL & NY would stay out.
We have added more skyscrapers in the past 10 years than any other American city.
Our $125 Million Schermerhorn Symphony Center is the envy of the world:
The Nashville Symphony is one of the finest of its kind in the nation and world. It is currently directed by world-famous Leonard Slatkin.
The hall features the multi-million dollar custom-built Martin Foundation Concert Organ, crafted by Schoenstein & Co. of San Francisco, which has 47 voices, 64 ranks, and 3,568 pipes with three 32-foot stops.
In addition to superior acoustics, all the amenities are high-tech, from the lighting, the elevator platform used to bring up on center stage concert pianos belonging to famous guest virtuoso performers from the loading dock on a lower floor, and in-house meeting rooms, restaurants, practice rooms, and outdoor courtyard.
The seating on the main floor is retractable in sections which are stored in a lower story of the building using a hydraulic elevator, leaving a flat floor for cabaret-style entertainment.
Vanderbilt University (my undergrad Alma Mater) is ranked # 16 by US News and World Report (https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/rankings/national-universities) and # 10 by Forbes (https://www.forbes.com/top-colleges/) in the US out of thousands of colleges and universities. The acceptance rate is 5%, the SAT Range is 1510-1560, the ACT Range is 34-35 and the High School GPA is 3.9/4.0. The campus has been upgraded with $1.6 Billion in magnificent Gothic-style academic buildings and dormitories, and athletic facilities. In addition, Vanderbilt has invested over $1 Billion in new satellite academic branches in New York, West Palm Beach, San Francisco and Chattanooga.
If only the western part of the Tennessee River had flowed just about 30 miles East, Arkansas could have had Memphis to deal with, and the rest of we Tennesseans would be far happier.
